I bought the heatsink case with my pi4 order and I'm glad I did. I use the pi to run pihole and the average recorded temp is ~48 degrees celsius, the heatsink case is always warm to the touch but I'd rather that than the cpu constantly running hot. Plus, it looks cool.

It's important to know that extension cables, incl. ones for breadboards might not fit into the gpio space. Other than that, the quality is good, it looks nice and you have to be sure that no cables are connected to the case.

Nice case with screws, good finish and fit. Seems to work for me. Pi4 running at 40C and case feels warm to touch. That's with motioneyeos and two basic cameras.

To avoid overheating you need something better than the standard case, a fan defeats the object of silent running this does a pretty good job, second purchase.

So far this has been an impressive heatsink passively cooling my 4B under load. One feature I would like is some 2/3mm threads on top so Hats can be attached

Very pleased with the case. A very robust and well engineered piece that keeps the Pi cool. Would buy again for the next Pi.

works well. Gets gently warm in quiescent conditions. Easy to assemble.

Looks good, keeps temperature to around 45 degrees. I added some self adhesive feet to the bottom of the heat sink. Although heat sink is made of aluminium it adds weight to the Pi too to help stop it sliding around. If your connecting a Pi camera, pop the ribbon cable into the Pi first.
